Study Summary

"This trial is testing a new gene therapy called SAR444836 for adults with phenylketonuria (PKU). The goal is to see if SAR444836 can reduce phenylalanine levels

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-65 with Phenylketonuria (PKU) due to PAH deficiency, who have been on a stable diet restricting phenylalanine. Participants must have had high plasma Phe levels in the past while on this diet and be willing to maintain their current diet for the trial's duration. They should not be able to bear children, have a BMI ≤ 35 kg/m2, and agree to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests SAR444836, a gene therapy aiming to treat PKU by introducing a functional version of the PAH enzyme via an adeno-associated virus vector. It involves one IV administration followed by monitoring over approximately two years with up to 41 visits which may include remote assessments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, participants will be closely monitored for any adverse events following the intravenous administration of SAR444836. This includes tracking organ function and overall health throughout the study.
